What is VideoFox?

VideoFox (or VideosFox) is a browser add-on that may turn your web browsing to hell. Security experts have already categorized it as an adware and a potentially unwanted program (PUP) that may get inside your computer without being noticed and start delivering tens of commercial advertisements. Since it's compatible with Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, and Internet Explorer web browsers, you may be irritated by 'Ads by VideoFox' on each of them. Unfortunately, they are not only annoying. It seems that these pop-up ads are managed by third-parties and used for generating pay-per-click revenue and increasing ranking of affiliate websites. However, no one guarantees that VideoFox ads are not filled with suspicious links and do not seek to redirect you to unsafe websites. In addition to that, you should always remember that adware-type programs may try to investigate your browsing habits and collect web browsing history. Even though such information is not considered as personal, don't underestimate the fact that your IP address, email address, search queries, websites visited, data entered and similar information is collected and may be further used for delivering appealing advertisements for you or sending spam on your email with an intention to spread other potentially unwanted programs. Has this adware already infiltrated your PC, slows it down, delivers tons of misleading messages and implements other suspicious activities? Do you want to remove VideoFox virus and ensure your computer's security? Then we recommend you to install a reputable anti-spyware, such as Reimage as soon as possible eliminate this adware from the system.

How can VideoFox hijack my computer?

In most of the cases, VideoFox and similar adware-type programs infiltrate random computers bundled with free software. There are hundreds of freewares and sharewares that are filled with additional components, such as add-ons, plug-ins, toolbars and extensions. Be very careful and avoid installing bundled freewares since their attachments are, usually, ad-supported and set to implement various activities for monetization purposes. Fortunately, it's quite easy to keep your computer away from bundled installers. First of all, you should select free software more carefully. In general, you should not fall for installing programs that promise to save your time and money while browsing the net, to enhance quality of online videos, or to improve your browsing in another dubious way. Such programs, usually, trick people into installing them and later implement lots of inconveniences on contaminated computer. By the way, avoid installing programs from questionable download sources. The best thing is to find the official website or a reputable download source and download your select freeware there. Finally, you have to select Advanced or Custom mode for its installation and be very attentive during the entire process. Keep an eye on every check box and opt out of additional components if you find any. If VideoFox redirects already bothered you for some time, do not wait any longer. Follow removal guidelines that have been submitted by our security experts and get rid of it immediately.
